The Brookings Regional Humane Society requested a lead gift of $500,000+ over five years and that the county raise its non-mandated annual contribution from $10,000 to $20,000 beginning in 2027 to support a capital campaign and operating costs.

Executive Director Maia Moore, joined by Campaign Co-Chairs Tammy Knudtson and Angela Daly, presented the Brookings Regional Humane Society's capital campaign request on April 21, asking the county for a lead gift of "$500,000+" spread over five years and for an increase in annual non-mandated county support from $10,000 to $20,000 beginning in 2027.

The request was entered into the public record for future budget consideration and potential inclusion in supplemental budgets or future appropriations.
